Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic condition that can cause extreme pain and disability. CRPS “typically develops after an injury, a surgery, a stroke or a heart attack,” according to the Mayo Clinic. If you or a loved one suffers from CRPS due to the negligence or malpractice of a healthcare provider, you may be entitled to compensation through a personal injury claim. Reach out today to work with a complex regional pain syndrome lawyer from Phillips Law Group.
CRPS is not common, and “the pain is out of proportion to the severity of the initial injury,” the Mayo Clinic reports. The medical center notes the following as signs and symptoms of CRPS:
CRPS lawsuits generally involve proving that a medical professional’s failure to diagnose, improper treatment, or negligence in care directly led to the development or worsening of the condition. While it may seem obvious to you or your loved one that CRPS was caused by negligence on the part of a medical professional, these cases can be complex, requiring detailed medical records, expert testimony, and a thorough understanding of both the medical and legal aspects of CRPS.
That’s where a Complex Regional Pain Syndrome attorney comes in. An experienced CRPS lawyer can help navigate the challenging legal process, working to establish liability and secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related damages as a legal advocate for you or your loved one.
In one case, a firm in New York City secured a settlement of $1.75 million for a client who sustained serious injuries in a slip-and-fall at her workplace that caused an ankle injury and, eventually, resulted in a CRPS diagnosis after suffering months of severe pain. Generally, the severity of the CRPS symptoms reported in a CRPS personal injury lawsuit can impact an eventual settlement value.
